Software issues with rear camera on ROMs - Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 Questions & Answers

Hello everyone,
As a new owner of RN4X I tried to flash a custom ROM as I am not fond of MIUI 8 and the bloatware it comes with. The only issue that always keeps reoccurring with all ROMs is that the rear camera is not detected.
My phone has qtech_ov13855 as a rear camera, which, if I understand correctly, appeared in later batches of production.
Is there any way to obtain firmware for this camera or to do something else to get it working?
Thanks in advance!

Yes I did. I got camera working by using an app called Snapchat. I'm wondering if there are alternatives to using that app, and wondering if anyone has camera working just using the stock app.

yes buddy front facing and back camera works very well with PacMan ROM, haven't tried other ICS Roms though. I upgraded through Gingerbread. ALthought Recorder seems to crash(I might try out another app for that. )
Please correct me if i'm wrong but i think that with PAC-MAN ROM (4.2.2) frontal camera works but rear camera can't take photos, only can preview images. In CM 10.1 it will occur the same cause PAC is based in it. Am I wrong?
PD: Sorry for my english, I'm from Catalonia.

Thanks but I used Arnova's v8.2 and it works great, I'd say it's even smoother than the one you sent me.
You should try it.

Yes you do have to enable camera 2 API and you can do that by flashing twrp and flashing magisk then installing camera 2 API enabler.
Google Camera [really bad quality]
i am currently using your ROM and the pre-installed GCam is so baddddddd
i am getting a green tint on every photo i take from the rear camera.....even on whatsapp (same issue)
AND THE WORST PART: the front camera is SUPER BAD!

Try AOSP extended if problem isn't fixed, it's a very good rom.
I found this one: https://miui.blog/redmi-5-plus/compatible-gcam-mods/
File name :
P3v9.1_GoogleCamera_6.1.021-cstark27.apk
Its better for Android 9.x Pie
I took several pics and none got that annoying green tint

Uninstall that one and install this, this is the Vince port, it doesn't have the night sight features but it's stable

[Request] enable full 20mp front camera resolution on 3rd party apps

Hello developers!
Can any one create a solution to enable full 20mp support for the front camera in 3rd party camera apps like gcam?
Some developers had made this possible in oneplus devices (like supoort for full 16mp res in front camera).
